Wow - incredible craftsmanship. To think he's still building them today, 
one-by-one. This particular instrument is very much a snapshot of an idea that 
the Stick represented at a particular moment in time. Probably it's best kept in 
that condition (ie perfect), as an example of one particular idea about an 
instrument, and a level of dedication to design and music that almost defies belief.
